Now I understand why we dont tell people we are getting the sleeve...

I have told my family who is really supportive. I told a teacher at school only because I was out for exams. At work which I have not gone back yet I only told one person. There is a girl there who is a beach body coach and a witch. I hate talking to her because she knows "everything" about diet and exercise. I am sure she will figure it out and spread it around. If that is the case I have HIPPA on my side since we work at a hospital. -
Today is the day that I start my new journey. Only a hour and a half before I start this journey. I am so excited for all the encouragement that I have gotten. Wish me luck!

Update December 17 can't get here quick enough
Harperana posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Everything is going. I started the two week liquid diet..day six and it sucks. I had my class, blood work, pre op anaesthesia appointment and now just waiting for the day. In the mean time i am finishing this semester of classes and working. Trying to focus on work and school is difficult when I am on this diet. The thought of not having "food" for a while is daunting. -
I am day six of the clear liquid diet. Anyone have any tips. I broke down today at my daughters birthday party and "chewed and spat" a piece of cheese. I never shallowed anything but still disappointed in myself. I am tired of broth, jello and shakes. My surgery date is 12/17. I feel like I am becoming a horrible mom and person. I have such a short temper and I am irritable. I am foggy and not feeling present. It does not help I have bronchitis.

I am so excited I have my date for surgery. This week I had an endoscopy (part of our process). All clear there!!! All I have to do now is the class! Just need help to stop gaining weight from stress eating. I am in my first semester of nursing school. I can't wait for break!
